Hello,

I have an issue where msgs column is changing from white to green all the time. It is filling Xymon server disk space. LXDBSP05 is running Xymon client + Xymon server. Any idea what is going on ?

Hi,
Check that you have not several instances of the client running on your server.

Hi Marius,

this could happen if the client data is too big. Are you able to check
the client data? Normally you find a link "Client data available" on the
builtin checks (cpu, disk, inode, msgs etc.) that displays the file that
has been transferred from the client to the server for further processing.
the topmost line should say [collector:] and the last line should
contain the time in UTC. If the last line is missing then there is
simply too much data that needs to be transferred from client to server.
Then you have to add/change MAXMSG_CLIENT to your xymonserver.cfg

First of course check your xymond.log if you see messages about files
being truncated.
If changing the xymonserver.cfg is not an option you can always reduce
the amount of data on the client side by editing the runclient.sh and
filter some things there before they are written to the client file that
is sent. But be aware if you do it that way you'll have to repeat it
when you upgrade your client.

Regards,
Torsten

Mariusz,

It seems like there may be more than one client reporting in. At the bottom of the historical status pages, you'll see something like "Status message received from 10.1.1.125".

Are they different?

Hi Dominique,

When I start Xymon Server, is the Xymon Client on this host started automatically as well ? I see I have two startup scripts in init.d/ - xymonserver and xymonclient , where xymonclient is a leftover from old version.

It depends of the linux flavor you use and if you installed from rpm/deb packages.

We are on RHEL7, don't use rpms and wrote our own init scripts.


Anyway you should have only one xymonlaunch process strarted with a clientlaunch config file.

Example:


$ ps -efl | grep clientlaunch | grep -v grep
1 S xymon       145710      1  0  90  10 -  2204 hrtime Jul08 ?        00:00:04 /opt/xymon/client/bin/xymonlaunch --config=/opt/xymon/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg --log=/opt/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.log --pidfile=/opt/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.<hostname>.pid

Hello,

@Dominique:
I can confirm there is only one xymonlaunch process strarted with a clientlaunch config.

@ Torsten:
Client data is available and starts with [collector:] and ends with UTC. In xymod.log there was truncated messages for two clients. I increased MAXMSG_CLIENT. Messages from xymod.log are gone, but the issue "white to green in a loop" is still there.

I have two servers configured - primary and secondary. The issue occurs only on primary. They are setup almost identically. On primary Xymon filesystem is occupying 362MB. On secondary 54M.

By any chance, are you using xymonfetch?  If so, you will need to add a
unique to each server by passing the '--id=1', for example, to the
xymonfetch command defined in tasks.cfg.  If you aren't using fetch then
this shouldn't be an issue as long as the clients know to talk to both
servers and they aren't behind a load balancer or round robin dns.  If the
clients are pointing to a loadbalancer, you'll still want to explicitly
point the clients to the individual servers.
